1935 Riley 12/ 4 Kestrel
No Reserve
Registration No: RD 7007
Chassis No: 22T 2112
MOT: Exempt
Known history back to the 1960's with a buff log book evidencing ownership to 1962
Acquired as a basket case by the vendor many years ago and painstakingly put back together
In need of final finishing off work cosmetically although it has been used recently on the road by the vendor
Supplied with the original twin-SU carburettors
Among the best-looking pre-WW2 British saloons, the Riley Kestrel debuted in 1933. Boasting a `double dropped' chassis with inter axle seating and `Aero Line' styling, the newcomer was powered by a variety of four and six-cylinder engines ranging from 9hp to 15hp. Highly capable and stylish, the 12/ 4 Kestrel was capable of over 70mph with many enthusiasts preferring the Four-Light `22T' version over the later and heavier Six-Light model.
